A Revolutionary way to think about Spirituality

This is a new Teaching about what spirituality is all about, the why, the how, and the what do do. To start with I will explain what religion and spirituality is all about - they are about Truth and Love. Truth and Love is YOUR nature and God's nature, so it makes sense that if you want to be spiritual you have to have Truth and Love. The more Truth and Love you have the more spiritual you will be. Beauty and Health are included as they are Divine qualities and these are the natural state of someone truly spiritual and so is intelligence. If you increase these qualities you increase your spirituality, they take you toward your True Nature which is Love, Truth, Health, Beauty, Intelligence and more like understanding. I really expect this Teaching to revolutionise spirituality and everything, and by the way you can not separate spirituality from everything else, as all life is spiritual, everything is One. And as everything is One, you are also One with God and He has all these qualities, so you will become more like God and your True Self, your Soul, as you develop these qualities. All Souls are One and One with God, you just need to realise it, by increasing these Divine qualities. I have learnt these things by hard won effort and because I have practised these things, thought/reflected on this and have discovered this New Teaching. There is no real limit to how much of these qualities you can have because God is unlimited, so if you work on these qualities you will become more spiritual. These are the qualities of the Real You so that is why you are working on them.
So increasing your Health and Intelligence is a way to be more spiritual, though we have to get away from the commonplace usages of those words. You do have to be rounded out for true results though. You may not figure this out unless I tell you. Increasing the health and intelligence of others and the whole planet is a way of being spiritual and this is where it is all leading and what spirituality is all about. Working on yourself can only take you so far. After some work on yourself, you will need to extend your effort to helping others, after all this is what Love is all about (Service is Love in action) and helping others is the surest way to increase these Divine qualities (as we serve we also learn). You can't really do it unless this is your motive. Now that's it... I'll see you in Heaven (not a place you go when you die, but can be achieved in the here and now - the Kingdom of Heaven is within after all). By the way, increasing your intelligence, IS helping others.
